Imphal, August 20 2020:
One individual who allegedly tried to lift a two-wheeler was rounded up by local people at Kha-Ningomthong, Imphal East and later handed over to police.
According to information culled from the spot, the alleged vehicle lifter is one Md Sanathoi s/o Fayaz of Keirao Makting.
He was rounded up by local people as he was seen swimming across Imphal River from Ningomthong Kitna Panung side to Kha Ningomthong side in a very suspicious manner.
On preliminary questioning, Sanathoi said that he was fleeing from the quarantine centre opened at CC Higher Secondary School.
On hearing his response, people stayed away from him.
Yet, he was asked not to move from the spot where he was.
The next moment, the local people learnt that no quarantine centre is opened at CC Higher Secondary School.
They also learnt that Sanathoi tried to break the lock of a Honda Active (MN-01AF/2372) at Ningomthong Kitna Panung before he swam across Imphal River to Kha Ningomthong side.
Even though the local people were enraged by what Sanathoi did, they did not harm him.
Rather Singjamei police station was informed about the incident.
Later, a team of Singjamei police station came to the spot and took away Sanathoi.
